toxic Toys

Spring is here finally at HealthyToys.org and we have new test results! We tested 13 of the most popular toys as voted on by HealthyToys.org supporters and over 500 other popular toys over the last few months. Unfortunately, these test show that far too many toys still have elevated levels of toxic chemical in them. However, for the first time, HealthyToys.org has also screened 250 organic and natural children's products for harmful chemicals. These tests confirm that natural and organic toys are substantially cleaner then other toys.

Visit HealthyToys.org to see the results today!

Under the new European law on chemicals, REACH (Registration, Authorisation, Evaluation and restriction of CHemicals), manufacturers are required to disclose to consumers the presence of certain toxic chemicals in their products. When you ask, companies are obliged to tell you within 45 days if a product contains chemicals that are on REACH's 'most harmful' list. We believe all consumers deserve the same information, regardless of where they live.

If you are concerned about toxic chemicals in children's products you can now send a letter to your toy's manufacaturer, TAKE ACTION today!
